      So then it should be an even fight because Manny is like 2 years older than Cotto that means Cotto was 13 maybe weighing 98 pounds when Manny was 15 weighing 106.
      Actually, Cotto when he was 15, he was a fat boy and he went to the gym because he was too fat to play baseball (TRUE STORY) Not sure how he began boxing instead but he did. I seriously doubt Cotto was 98 lbs when he was 15 if he was sent to the gym to lose weight because he was to fat to play baseball.

      Manny was a runt and is just now starting to grown into his gremlin little body. If he beats Cotto, it's because Manny is now a big boy

        Another idiot bites the dust...

        Its ur turn ignoramus.

        There's a reason why there's weight classes.

        When was the last time a Flyweight went up 10 divisions and won 4 lineals.

        Answer that and maybe ur peanut brains have some hope of logic afterall.

            Exactly, we all were 106 at one time, Manny just happened to be boxing at that time, Floyd was fighting at 106 in the amateurs at 16, he just wasnt as poor as Manny at the time, who needed to turn pro to make money. He was fighting 5'0 guys whom he towered over.

              Wen was the last time a Flyweight got a lineal belt at 140?

              Ur brains need more boxing education.

                What really does have me super pissed, is that Battle Studies still hasn't dropped AND I won't get to see you at Toyota Center until NEXT YEAR!!
